Eddie Brock x Venom x Reader

"So let me get this straight..." You begin. "You went into this unconventional, experimental facility and came out infected by a demonic parasite?"

"Uh... yeah." Eddie, your boyfriend of two years replies, scratching the back of his neck. "So... what now?"

"Now... I don't know if I should take you to a doctor or to a priest."

"You don't believe me?"

"I'm not saying that. I'm saying... the world is changing so I shouldn't be surprised. Part of me wants to run away and stay away."

"And the other part?"

"... Wants to see it?"

"Do you really?" You shift the weight to your other foot and fiddle with your fingers.

"Yeah?" Eddie takes a deep breath. You watch as his body transforms and is engulfed into a sea of black, growing twice his size and a giant tongue emerging from its mouth.

It's like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly... if a butterfly was black and slightly slimy... with like a 50 inch tongue.

"Good evening Miss. Y/L/N." The figure says. You look at him with awe and amazement.

"Hello Mr..."

"Venom." he says in a deep voice.

"Venom." You repeat. "Interesting..."

"You're not afraid." You raise an eyebrow.

"D—Do you want me to be afraid? Because I can act afraid. I'll do it up. I'll pull out all the stops if that's what you want."

"Artificial fear isn't as... appetizing."

"Right. Right. I just... I have so many questions."

"Where would you like to begin?"

"Why? What's your purpose?"

"To live. But I can only live while attached to a host body."

"But why Eddie? I mean he's not much." Half of Venom's face unfolds to reveal Eddie.

"Babe." He says.

"Sorry but you're not." Venom's skin folds back over him.

"There is something about Eddie that excites me. His adrenaline, his need for more."

"You said that artificial fear is appetizing. Does that mean you eat... people?"

"Only people that I consider bad."

"But you don't help old ladies cross the street."

"I'm not that good."

"So you're like... an anti hero." His head tilts to the side.

"Anti hero. I like it." The corners of his mouth curl upward into a smile.

"So are you around all the time or do you go to sleep?"

"I wouldn't call it sleep. I just... stay quiet." You stare at him.

"Can I... touch you?" Venom is taken back. No one has ever wanted to touch him. Especially a woman. "It's ok to say no. We just met. You won't hurt my feelings."

"No one has ever asked me that."

"Well there's a first time for everything." You slowly walk up to him and rest your hand against his skin. It's slick but not slimy. You thought it would be cold, but it's actually warm, obviously, he's a living organism. Your nails run down and you could have sworn you heard him moan.

He comes down to a normal size, about 3 inches taller than you. You look up to him and see his white eyes meet yours. His eyes are empty and for some reason you have a desperate need to try to fill them.

"Amazing." You breath out. Venom quickly changes back to Eddie and you pull your hand away. "Did I do something wrong?" You watch Eddie pause as if he's waiting for a response.

"He likes you." Eddie smiles.
